It's A Boy!!!!

I really don't know why I had such a hard time coming up with the title of this post LOL. Alexia and I went for our second and last ultrasound today with the goal of determining the sex of our chalupa. The beginning of the appointment was pretty standard with questions galore and a little lube to get everyone in the mood. The ultrasound technician dimmed the lights and we were able to see the first signs of life- namely all the chambers of a heart! Pretty cool and of course I had a million geeky questions to ask. We were able to see ribs, a femur, lots of cranial shots and a very defined spinal column. We were both getting pretty anxious about finding out the sex of the baby and we were assured that we would know in "no time." We saw the baby shadow boxing and what looked like a mean left hook. This was our first indication. The second ultrasound technician came in and took the helm and was quick to verify Alexia's assertions. A boy!! We were both relieved to hear that things are progressing well and that we are on schedule for everything. Below are some pictures that probably won't make much sense, but luckily the important ones are labeled.



Hope you guys enjoyed the photos. You kinda have to use your imagination for some of these but the details are there. To those of you hoping for a girl (maybe next time) for those of you hoping for a boy... you were right!!! It's an exciting time. Lots of aunts and uncles out there.
